Albert Charles "Chuck" Bond

Albert Bond Obituary

It is with great sadness that the family of Albert Charles Bond, known as Chuck, announces his passing on Dec. 14, 2018 at home in Hospice Care after a sudden and debilitating stroke. Chuck will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 59.5 years, Verlin; his children, Karen (Jeff), John (Diane) and Joe. He will also be fondly remembered by his 10 grandchildren: Karen and Jeff's 5 sons - Ben, Theo, Tim, Willy, Zeke; John and Diane's three sons - Jeremy, Ryan, Cory; Joe's two daughters - Danielle and Charlotte; and his three great-grandchildren - Nicole, Caiden, Aliyah. Family includes Jeremy's fiancé Jen, Ben's wife Marissa, Cory's ex-wife Ally, and Joe's girlfriend Glenda. Memorial service to be held on Sunday, January 20, at 11:00 AM, at Twin Peaks Seventh-Day Church, Louisville, Colorado. All friends of the family are welcome to attend the service and reception. Chuck graduated from UC Berkeley, California, and was a US Marine. Chuck's career was as a Real Estate Appraiser first working for Division of Highways in San Francisco, California, later became an independent appraiser for many years; and on retirement, became a currier for Ball Aerospace, a school bus driver and lastly a sign putter-outer and picker-upper for Karen's Co. He loved to write, study languages, camp, make bonfires, backpack, travel, have unusual adventures, ski, sing in choirs - Broomfield and Church, act in skits, play dominos-chicken foot, canasta, do water aerobics, yoga, eat at Broomfield Senior center, visit with friends, listen to music, and be with his wife and family. Chuck wrote a book, "Five Sleeping Bags and Tickets to Europe", which is a true story about a six-month camping trip with his wife and children in 1977. And he created a second book titled, "My Word's" that is a collection of some of the many stories and poems that he wrote. He completed his last book just days before his death. Chuck and Verlin attended three churches in Colorado - City on the Hill in Boulder; Flatiron Community in Lafayette, along with Twin Peaks Seventh Day Adventist. Chuck was a talented wonderful man, husband, father, and friend. Rather than flowers, donations in memory of Chuck can be made to Local Marine Corps Vets or the Semper Fi Fund via email or online.

We met Chuck in 1985 in California. He was a most charming man, so helpful in many ways, and we were so sorry to hear of his passing. He was really a remarkable man and we are sorry we didn't make it to Colorado to see him. He sent us a copy of his book, which we are so happy to have. All our sympathy to Verlin and his entire family.

Chuck was such a special person - so full of curiosity, intelligence, and humor. I cherish the time we spent together while I served as his production assistant (i.e. MS Word worker), and miss him very much. I'm delighted to remain good friends with his dear wife and best friend, Verlin Joy.

Please allow your tender memories of your loved one to be as a soothing blanket over your heart. My heartfelt sympathy to the family. Please consider Jeremiah 29:11, 12. May those words within bring you some consolation and a small measure of peace.
